I've been up since 7:30. Managed to watch a film and everything. Incidentally, how are we all?

Watched a film already? Impressive. I've been up since 8.30 and have achieved nothing. I have family coming round for coffee at 11am, so I really have to get going.

ah then
OK - tis correct.

Being in Spain, the time is correct for me.

And all is well, for an early Sunday morning.

piston, any biscuits to go with that tea?

Despite my best efforts last night, I find myself with an absence of hurty head syndrome.

Tea is present but tobacco is dwindling and ever increasingly skinny roll ups are being manufactured - May have to bite the bullet and trudge down the shops.

Hi Tww
I'm trying to summon the fortitude to go out and clean the car but so far weather looks too miserable to brave the elements .... Arse.

On the upside I have spotted a sewing machine in Lidl for £20 which will enable me to make myself a gargantuan beanbag.

I'd like to get a new one, but having been raised by a seamstress, I have very high standards in such things....... my mum has promised me her 'old' one when she upgrades her current Husqvarna viking machine. Those are seriously expensive.

just sent my eldest out for Sunday papers. From the look on her face you'd have thought I'd asked her to do a shift in the salt mines. Ah, to be fourteen again .... actually, no. It was bad enough the first time around.

Other than that, nothing exciting happening around here today.

Didn't you get "locked" in the toilet at work recently too?

There are two explanations to this...

1) You're addicted to sniffing cleaning products.

2) You're into cottaging, but you're awful at it.

Afternoon Kaol
Erm yeah I did but somebody locked me in. This time the lock broke, trapping me inside. Which serves me right for locking the door to my bathroom when I live by myself. And there's no window for to climb out of.

Okay all of that is a lie. I actually cottage on a regular basis. But I'm extremely shit at it seeing as I try it at my work and at home. Maybe I should move further afield next time.

( Batshitmentalist is sane for once, Sun 26 Oct 2008, 16:44, Reply)

Yeah
but it's one of those handles with the lock built in to it. I must have twisted it too hard when I locked it or something because the mechanism inside snapped. I managed to get out by unscrewing the handle around the plate using the corner of a toilet roll tube and pulling the mechanism back in to place.

I'm like a really shit action man. Who enjoys cottaging.

hello
I've just sprained my ankle. It's sore. I wanted to go dancing this evening and now I can't. My boyfriend won't answer his phone because either a) he's in a strop with me, b) he's fishing, or c) both of the above.

Ah, yes, I only come on here with tales of woe. And some cunt kicked off my wing mirror last night.
( crackhouseceilidhband Fuck off back to Mumsnet, Sun 26 Oct 2008, 18:13, Reply)

What do I play?
I sing and play bass.
Then we've got a drummer and a guitarist.

It's really hard for me to describe what we sound like without sounding like I'm talking crap.

Other people have said that we sound like a variety of other stuff like Queens Of The Stone Age, Therapy?, Nick Cave and Early Nirvana.

I dunno if I agree with any of that though.

EDIT: I think I sprained my ankle last night too, I was kicking the wing-mirror off some old-looking car.

You are full of woe. If you ever post something chipper and upbeat, we'll all assume you're lying.

Sorry to hear about the foot/bloke/mirror.
( thealternativefact, Sun 26 Oct 2008, 18:15, Reply)

fear not
the likelihood of me posting something upbeat is minimal, though I did get half of my roofspace insulated before I sprained my ankle.
( crackhouseceilidhband Fuck off back to Mumsnet, Sun 26 Oct 2008, 18:17, Reply)

Were your roofspace activites
and your subsequent sprain somehow connected?
( thealternativefact, Sun 26 Oct 2008, 18:19, Reply)

tentatively -
I was walking downstairs en route to the bin with a piece of old carpet I'd found in the roofspace and I missed the bottom step and landed on my ankle. I am still amazed I didn't put my leg through the ceiling at any point so a sprained ankle seems perfectly reasonable.

No Country For Old Men & John Carpenter's Vampires are fucking awesome. Wanted to see 3:10 but never got around to it ... I may make a list of films to watch on Tv links while I'm on leave.

It's Italian

There's two of them on the same street, but the one I'm going to is better - staff are nicer and make the experience that much warmer. A tad expensive over the course of a meal, but they give you fresh made bread, and butter and everything is authentic Italian. Marvellous.

Kaol, just couldn't get into Tomahawk at all. Monster Magnet is more my type of thing

Greetings.

Moved into my new flat yesterday, and have spent the weekend buying things for it and exploring the area. The local bus-services can be best described as "Fuck me! That's convenient!".

When I was shown round by the estate agent, I believed my bed would come with bed-clothes, but had to spend my first night on a bare bed. The flat is a bit small, but not too small. It's cheap, includes bills, got everything I need and I like what's there.

There's currently no Internet access, and I can't connect to a local wifi-hotspot, but hopefully, I should get BT on my case soon.

If humans and flats could make babies, I would!!!

3 moths to this last week that I cut my antipsychotic dose by a third.. and I feel better!

even being getting on better with my parents.. those tablets give you another kind of anxiety..

I know you have a similar diagnosis to me and have come off this fucking bullshit psychiatry shit that I "have to take" according to my psychiatrist.. and she has legal rights to hospitalise me if I don't take what she says..

but seriously.. I'm feeling a lot better.. and more alive for not having my dopamine receptors blocked.. in fact I'm more positive about getting a job or at least having an honest chat with my parents and moving out somehow..

hello kaol!

btw wtf do you do for a living? I've never met another schizo with a job before..

Fucking good job man,
Those fuckin' antipsychotics are pretty much evil incarnate.

I work as a graphic designer, but I'm what's described as "high functioning", and as such I don't really have an issue with keeping a job or any of that.

I'm pretty fucking lucky, to be honest, I know that a lot of people have it far, far worse than me.

My advice is:
1) Don't get sectioned.
2) Come off the antipsychotics slowly and smoothly
and
3) Don't be afraid to ask people if you need to talk. That includes me.

Silverfish are creepy...

The favorite food of silverfish includes glue, book bindings, paper, photos, sugar, hair, and dandruff.

Silverfish will commonly graze in and around showers, baths, and sinks on the cellulose present in many shampoos, shaving foams and so on.

In extreme cases, silverfish may live for a year without eating.

Silverfish can be found anywhere in homes including, but not limited to, garages, closets, underneath beds, couches, electrical appliances such as keyboards and generally preferring dark areas.

Er...
I don't really know much about fungi, but I think the mushrooms'll be fine, just don't eat them, and throw them away as soon as you can, don't want 'em sporing!

Animal weirdness...
There's a parasitic worm that gets into snails.
Now this worm has to spend adult life in a bird to reproduce.
To ensure that it makes it from the snail to the bird, it alters the chemistry of the snail's brain, over-riding it's desire to hide by day.
It "makes" the snail go and sit in plain view of predators, and the snail gets eaten by a hungry bird.

I got as much of it out of the soil as I could when they were little spheres... and I did try to get antifungal stuff but couldn't find any for houseplants. They grew remarkably quickly...

The snail parasite is evil. Evil evil evil.

Reminds me of those ants that get invaded by fungus on Life In The Undergrowth. Which I think got a mention in the newsletter, funnily enough. I saw it ages ago and it traumatised me, shan't be watching it again, and b3ta can't persuade me. Ergh.
